1959 Betty White commercials in color
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- Here are the three Richard Hudnut cosmetics commercials from an NBC Milton Berle TV Special aired on October 11, 1959, featuring a glamorous 37-year-old Betty White. (The color video is dubbed from the 2" master tape that still exists and still plays back--thanks to our friends at Research Video in North Hollywood, California.)
her voice hasn't changed that much
Almost not at all.
It's mellowed.
Her voice between then to the 1990s didn’t change much. It’s gotten more deep since the 2000s tho. Her voice from Golden Girls (1985-1992) compared from her voice in Hot In Cleveland (2010-2015) does sound different.
Her voice was completely different throughout her early series and changed into what we recognize now going into the 1960’s. If you listen to her voice into her mid-thirties she didn’t sound like the Betty White we know at all. It changed and started to develop that familiar quiver when she was nearing forty.
She was only 60 years old for this commercial.
I feel like a 50s housewife watching commercial while cooking
Same
LMAO
TV dinner is ready! 😁
Evidently a rich one if you can afford a television in the kitchen.
Drinking TAB 😂
everyone talking crap about how old she got. . . you people do realize we ALL get old eventually right ?
If she got younger then we all should be alarmed
What? I call bullshit
Who's out there thinking to themselves "man, that person is such a cunt for growing so old"
Exactly victor you see they are jealous because they’ll never have the success and achievements like Betty White she did something with her life now she is a living legend
No respect I look up too Betty White.

Already in her 30s in 1959. She lived through soo much, what a life.
If she lived without Christ Jesus , her life was in vain , for she lost her soul eternally . We must repent and turn to Christ Jesus today

She was so beautiful as a young spokesmodel. Her voice deepening as she aged. I still can't get over her passing....
It's the mark of a great person when passing at 99 is too soon.
Amazing. She was already "the one and only Betty White"!
Not her already being an icon in the 50s
God! I sure miss her.. Rest In LOVE 💘 Betty White😢
The quality of this restored tape is amazing!
It's not restored they had color tv in the 50s. Not many homes had color tv though
@@breakingames7772 although I do believe they didn't mean that, instead it was in reference to the quality of the video. Which isn't restored, simply kept nicely organized and not wrinkled up in this recording. But in terms of quality, 1959 doesn't strike me as a insane moment to see good film, I've seen cinecolor and Agfacolor films in Chicago, Los Angeles, and Florida all in the time of, oh yes and 1 in Washington, all from the time of 1927 to 1934. Yes that's right, all true color, not the fake nonsense. It amazes me that we didn't try to incorporate color earlier than the 50's, it must have been hard to have color shows and many black and white movies-shows-commerials-and cartoons all in usually black and white, then to adjust with some installments using color. Of course you would have to change some of the tubing, and add an a incorporation piece of you wanted a singular addition, and or wait for your Television operator to adjust a color setting to your Television which really was no trouble..but in total, I do wish there could have been another way to do it. The first color television set was 1935, very small octagonal shaped peak-aboo screen border, and had a certain filter over it that properly disturbed color across the cartoons and or shows (usually many shows in France and Germany were airing) and of course Disney was a big hit for the families that could afford the television. My grandmother called it the status symbol of ignoring your children, and always bickered with me about how they looked possessed, in a trance by it...she was very political in terms of changing events such as skyscrapers and books. Even ignored my grandfather when he got his first and second automobile...back in 1901 and 1904. Wrote a whole article in the 90's about how the pointless rise of skyscrapers height from 20 to 30 to 40 to 50 was ridiculous and nonsensical. She was regal, and magnificent. My mother always wore her ruby earrings she purchased in 1873 upon her arrival to Manhattan. Like mother like daughter.
I don't know. Probably coulda been better if a certain someone didnt decide to give it 480x360 pixels to work with.
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar These videos were NTSC camera signals recorded to 2 inch Quad magnetic tape. No film involved. I also assume that it was all live switched without editing. Kind of amazing how few mistakes they made back then.
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar 1959 was a benchmark year for film and cinematography, with the release of Ben Hur, filmed in widescreen. It remains one of Hollywood's costliest and highest quality motion pictures to produce, inflation adjusted.
this is outstanding quality for 1959.
Yall acting as if 1959 is 1859
This has to be right off 2 inch tape. Very clean!
Was videotaped, not filmed, hence no blotches, faster frame rate, and clear sound.
@@bangelz0949 it basically is. Practically anyone who was an adult then, is dead. Except for Betty White of course!
Thebrothaisback my grandma is still alive
So beautiful and so effortless. There will never be another like her again...
She and Lucille Ball were two of the best ever. Nothing in Hollywood today could touch them as far as talent and longevity. They were trailblazers.
@@mattmalone524 Damn right.
"First new form of lipstick in 40 years"....meaning 1919, after the end of WWI...I love that line, given that we're now watching an ad that is nearly 60 years old itself. These ads pretty much nearly bridge a century now, referentially speaking.
That's a cool perspective.
My grandma was born in 1919, she passed in 2018 at the age of 98 (4 months before her 99th bday) and Betty White reminded me so much of her. R.I.P. to them both❤
Its weird to think that in this clip they were as far from the 1910s as we are now from the 80s
Betty white outlived Richard Hudnut by many years. I am 73 I never heard of these products.
Even if Betty wasn't on TV, she could have worked as voice talent. She has a fabulous, clear speaking voice
She did voice work before TV existed! She appeared in radio plays and commercials in the 1930's!
I can't help watching these commercials with the anticipation of her possibly saying something sweetly sarcastic.
Or talking about life back in St Olaf.
Or naively
Betty White was smart and gorgeous. She was still acting into her 90's... amazing!
Beautiful face. Dimples to die. Sparkle and charisma, wicked timing, experience and skills.
Icon.
I'm generally not a fan of commercials, but Betty White makes it entertaining to watch.
I would argue it's only entertaining because we're watching it with restrospective nostalgia.
@@eagillum It's possible. But these commercials were long before I was born.
There will never be anyone like Richard Hudnut again
Betty White is television.
She's immortal
Damn I see you pretty often fellow Indonesian
Dia baru meninggal..
She died
@@HattieMcDanielonaMoon ik that's why I'm here smh
@@HattieMcDanielonaMoon you couldn’t wait to come here and say that huh?
Died at 99 but considered 100 in everyone's hearts.
What a lady! Beautiful dimples. Classy, but had a cutting edge sense of humor. Will always be missed.
Amazing that beautiful woman never remarried. She was so sweet and lovely.
I am sure she had many offers. She could have had any man she wanted but she said she had had the best of them all in Allen Ludden.. aww! She adored him..
I'm just agog at the quality of this video. I had no idea videotape, let alone colour videotape, existed in the late 1950s. Not only that, but it looks outstanding. To say nothing of how gorgeous Ms. White was back then. What an incredible time capsule of 1950s television ads.
Taped on state of the art RCA color cameras at NBC in Burbank. Probably the best TV studios in the world at that time.
Hard to believe she was 37 here when this was 62 years ago.
Betty White was beautiful! Crazy how the commercials were live
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot She IS beautiful.
@@firstnamelastname5407 I'm speaking on what I saw, SMH. Jesus...some of you are insufferable. RIP to Betty...and a pox on your judgmental ass.
1959: announcers spoke softly and with respect.
2022: over dramatize and yell at them. Yeah, they'll buy it.
That first model "shampooing" her hair was beautiful. The blue eyeshadow of the 1960s and 70s was already coming in to fashion.
Betty White always makes me laugh, but she's got some competition here from the name Richard Hudnut.
And Richard Hudnut’s product name “cream rinse” 🤣
She's always had the same lovely voice and the same charm! She was such a gift to the world. I still feel like she's alive, I sometimes forget she's gone. She is immortal in a way because she will always be in our hearts❤️
❤️
It is like the video taken 30 yrs ago unbelievable film quality
VHS actually!!!
Surreal seeing Betty White in another dimension...she looks beautiful though. RIP Betty.
Anyone else just waiting for "back in St-Olaf...". You're missed Betty! Those commercials are golden ❤
I can’t get enough of those old tv clips. They are especially pleasant to watch when they feature our beloved Betty. Thanks for that great video.
Spending my day off, watching anything and everything involving this perfect lady 💞
If life begins at 40, Betty White's began in 1962. Mind = blown.
She was nominated for an Emmy in 1951.
Next january 23th, It will be the 70th anniversary of Betty White' first nomination at Emmy
For real!!! It's mindblowing especially since I'm turning 40 this year. She gives me hope.
@@labbecedario1579 lol@ "23th"
@@alishak4061 she certainly was beautiful at 40. No hard nosed old Karen there just a stunning lady!
Such a beautiful, elegant woman. Thanks for showing these, I've never seen Betty White when she was young, what a treat (and what a beauty! Those dimples, lucky woman!)
thanks for uploading this piece, it clearly shows how "classy" television was back then, not only the tv shows, but the commercials as well, thanks again.
Tupxxx
Look at how STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL Betty was and how equally gorgeous her hair, dresses, jewelry and makeup were!!!
Color looks amazing. Looks like the 80's.
Wow Betty looks great as she always has, embracing her own "golden years" in her own unique fashion and way!
Rest In Peace Beautiful, thank you for being our friends for all these years
I wonder what happen to lip quick? Cause it's now back to lip stick...
+Ian Terrance Lip Gloss happened.
Danforth Taylor 😆😆 love your reply...
Ian Bryant I wish it would be a comeback
I wondered the same thing.
It's a treat to see ANY surviving color VTR footage from this era - thanks for sharing!
"For all you smart girls that use home permanents". I am so hooked on the golden girls I was expecting laughter from the audience xD
wow she only needed to stay alive for 17 days longer and she would have been 100 years old
OMG Those dimples
I’m in love with those! 🥰
What a career. What a life. A legend
Wow, she's even prettier than I expected! I think it's lovely that she's had such a long career.
Wow, these commercials are gems! RIP Betty, we will miss you dearly.
No this is videotape! That's the amazing thing! It was one of the first television shows actually videotaped in color!
...and these elegant golden cases ARE Jewelry.
My mum was born the same year this commercial came out
I love her dresses, especially the first one.
This had to be taped at NBC's Color City in Burbank. Betty White was based in LA. She's been in TV so long, she was on Channel 13 in LA back when it was still KLAC-TV.
Lucky Channel 13. Owned by NY Post owner.
She was beautiful and stayed beautiful. Rip Betty
She's such a classy beauty!! 🤗😍. We love you Betty!!! RIP ✝✝
It's a strange sensation that this high quality video tape was taken 6 days before my mother was born. RIP Betty White.
Now it won't be fucked up when I say I'm sexually attracted to betty white.
87.
No 21.
Great video treasure. In Phoenix, until about 1968, virtually all commercials were broadcast in black and white, even in color programming because of the insane Bell Telephone transmission costs that were charged by the minute.
Bless Betty White I’m loving these old ads, it just goes to show much not has changed, people are still advertising make up and hair care
Wow, this is some stunning video quality for 1959
What an incredible lady and life.
R.I.P.
Betty was "sweet enough to be kissed" herself!
Betty White - one of the most loved woman in the world.........
Beautiful.
If I hadn't checked the year n the description, I wold have thought these ads were from the 1970's. The quality of these 50's color videotapes are exquisite! :D
No one dressed like this in the 70s though
@@jackchadwick9824 I've seen some old 1970's clips where people still dressing very conservatively and formal for television.
And thanks for replying to this as I haven't seen this clip again since forever.
@@jlhabitan50 I think actually older people dressed like this way into the 70s so you’re right
I miss you so much. Rest in peace 🕊️
Her career way outlasted many Oscor winners!! Well done Ms. White, well done.
The quality and preservation of this video tape are just astounding!
These were originally filmed on 2 inch video tape, which was quite new at the time being created in 1951, instead of regular film. That’s why it looks like it was filmed in the 80s instead of the 50s
Wow I could have bought a gallon of shampoo for .98 cents back in '50's..lol I love betty white my grandmother is turning 91 this year and ms . white got her by two years. ..amazing and my grandmother remembers her commercial
money value was different back then
There's a clip on UA-cam called Betty White: Radio Star, and it's of her acting on a radio show at age 9 in 1930. Gosh, I think my grandparents were toddlers in 1930! Anyway, the timbre of her voice has barely changed in 85 years; she was completely recognizable.
It’s a different Betty White
It's so weird because I know the video says 59 but she is so modern day and timeless that she seems so today.
Her voice between then to the 1990s didn’t change much. It’s gotten more deep since the 2000s tho. Her voice from Golden Girls (1985-1992) compared from her voice in Hot In Cleveland (2010-2015) does sound different.
They say she was a wild one back in the day. . .
BETTY WHITE WAS A TRUE BEAUTY AND A PERFECT REPRESENTATION FOR SUCH PRODUCTS AS A COMPLIMENT TO HER STUNNING LOOKS WOW!!!!!!!!! I ALWAYS THOUGHT SHE WAS GORGOUS IN ALL THE WAYS ON MAMA"S FAMILY!!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETTY WHI!!!!!!!!! I GOT HER LIFE ICONS COMMEMORATIVE MAGAZINE AND WROTE HER A LETTER FOR HER 91 BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! AND OH I LOVED THE EIGHTIES JUST FINE, THEY DID HAVE BETTY WHITE!!!!!!!! AND I'M GLAD THIS FOOTAGE STILL EXISTS THANK YOU!!!!!!!! HEZEKIAH MANIGO JR.
RIP BETTY WHITE 😭😭😭
55 Years later and someone getting a permanent still is like breathing poison. I wonder why this product didn't catch on? Neat to see Betty White here though, thanks for uploading this.
one of luckiest women in show business..still working at her age and so successful
Video starts playing after an ad, with Betty White !!!
Wow! That's nice crystal clear sound for 1959!!
With her sense of humor, it’s amazing she managed to go the entire time without making a joke about “hadnut”
I didn't get a color TV until the late 70's.
RIP Betty. The end is truly near
Her whole adult life is entertaining us all ❤️THANK YOU BETTY
One in ah million dat Betty
It’s strange to think the world was ever this wholesome.
Rest easy, Betty
This is one of my favorite videos of her on UA-cam. I hope this video starts circulating a lot more now so people can see more of the cool stuff she did.
When I first stared watching TV in the earl;y fifty she was already performing.Talk about staying power!
94 years of living in this demented world. Only a trace has rubbed off on her.
So much elegance, beauty & charm. 🥰
Wow she was maybe 37 in that commercial? Gosh she lived a very long and healthy life, god bless her soul.
My grandmother called Conditioner "Cream Rinse" This is the only other time I've ever heard it
I sure wish I had eight exciting shades to choose from.
She was so beautiful, Rest In Peace Betty 💖
Happy Birthday, Betty 1-17-21 🎂❗
Shut up Rose!! Hahahah . Betty White was a beautiful person on the inside and outside. We will miss you!!!
Some people just have special qualities Betty is sure one of them it's her beautiful nature that keeps her alive today!
Holy moly! Betty always was such a classy, intelligent, and funny lady. But she was gorgeous too, even later in life.
But here holy smokes. I’d drop everything to find a girl like her. Ah.. the one sad thing I never got over is how she never had kids. She would have been an amazing mom and they would have been so loved.
I guess the truth is, Betty had enough love and compassion she saw all living things as her children ❤❤❤
RIP Ms. White. You’ll always be our national treasure but for now rest your wonderful soul ❤❤
She looks like royalty. May she rest in peace
